approval will expire on September 30,
2006. The Commission now proposes to
request an extension of approval of this
collection of information. As explained
below, the current estimates that this
collection of information will require
approximately 7,030 hours on all
respondents.
B. Estimated Burden
The Commission staff obtains
information about incidents involving
consumer products from approximately
14,851 persons annually. The staff
conducts face-to-face interviews at
incident sites with approximately 807
persons each year. On average, an on-
site interview takes approximately 5
hours. The staff will also conduct
approximately 2,544 in-depth
investigations by telephone. Each in-
depth telephone investigation requires
approximately 20 minutes.
Additionally, the Commission’s hotline
staff interviews approximately 4,600
persons each year about incidents
involving selected consumer products.
These interviews take an average of 10
minutes each. Each year, the
Commission also receives information
from about 6,900 persons who complete
forms requesting information about
product-related incidents or injuries.
These forms appear on the
Commission’s Internet Web site, http://
www.cpsc.gov, and are printed in the
Consumer Product Safety Review and
other Commission publications. The
staff estimates that completion of a form
takes about 12 minutes.
The Commission staff estimates that
this collection of information imposes a
total annual burden of 7,030 hours on
all respondents: 4,035 hours for face-to-
face interviews; 848 hours for in-depth
telephone interviews; 1,380 hours for
completion of written forms; and 767
hours for responses to Hotline telephone
questionnaires.
The Commission staff estimates the
value of the time of respondents to this
collection of information at $28.75 an
hour (June 2005, Bureau of Labor
Statistics). At this valuation, the
estimated annual cost to the public of
this information collection will be about
$202,000.
C. Request for Comments
The Commission solicits written
comments from all interested persons
about the proposed collection of
information. The Commission
specifically solicits information relevant
gechino on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
to the following topics:
• Whether the collection of
information described above is
necessary for the proper performance of
the Commission’s functions, including
VerDate Aug<31>2005 22:39 Aug 03, 2006 Jkt 208001
whether the information would have
practical utility;
• Whether the estimated burden of
the proposed collection of information
is accurate;
• Whether the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected
could be enhanced; and
• Whether the burden imposed by the
collection of information could be
minimized by use of automated,
electronic or other technological
collection techniques, or other forms of
information technology.

CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY
COMMISSION
Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request—Safety Standard
for Automatic Residential Garage Door
Operators
AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety
Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of
May 15, 2006 (71 FR 28017), the
Consumer Product Safety Commission
published a notice in accordance with
provisions of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) to
announce the agency’s intention to seek
extension of approval of the collection
of information in the Safety Standard for
Automatic Residential Garage Door
Operators (16 CFR part 1211). One
comment was received in response to
that notice stating that reporting of
problems with garage door operations
should be mandatory and posted on the
internet. Section 15(b) of the Consumer
Product Safety Act, 15 U.S.C. 2064(b),
requires every manufacturer, importer,
distributor and retailer of a consumer
product distributed in commerce who
obtains information which reasonably
supports the conclusion that such
product contains a defect which could
create a substantial product hazard or
creates an unreasonable risk of serious
injury or death, to immediately inform
the Commission. If a determination is
made that a substantial hazard exists
regarding garage doors or garage door
operators, a recall of that product may
be issued and posted on the CPSC Web
site at http://www.cpsc.gov. In addition,
product-related injuries treated in
hospital emergency rooms are reported
in the National Electronic Injury
PO 00000 Frm 00010 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\04AUN1.SGM
Surveillance System at http://
www.cpsc.gov/LIBRARY/neiss.html.
Accordingly, the Commission now
announces that it has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of approval of that
collection of information without
change for a period of three years from
the date of approval.
The Consumer Product Safety
Improvement Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101–
608, 104 Stat. 3110) requires all
automatic residential garage door
openers manufactured after January 1,
1993, to comply with the entrapment
protection requirements of UL Standard
325 that were in effect on January 1,
1992. In 1992, the Commission codified
the entrapment protection provisions of
UL Standard 325 in effect on January 1,
1992, as the Safety Standard for
Automatic Residential Garage Door
Operators, 16 CFR part 1211, Subpart A.
Certification regulations implementing
the standard require manufacturers,
importers and private labelers of garage
door operators subject to the standard to
test their products for compliance with
the standard, and to maintain records of
that testing. Those regulations are
codified at 16 CFR part 1211, subparts
B and C.
The Commission uses the records of
testing and other information required
by the certification regulations to
determine that automatic residential
garage door operators subject to the
standard comply with its requirements.
The Commission also uses this
information to obtain corrective actions
if garage door operators fail to comply
with the standard in a manner which
creates a substantial risk of injury to the
public.
